    Israel is an imperialist state oppressing the Palestinians, dontcha' know? All the trendy liberals are calling Israel a terrorist state.

    Heck, the Israeli Army don't even wear a modern, self-respectin' camouflage uniform.

    This is so much derp on HK's part, I don't know where to begin..I mean, if Hk was looking for a way to run themselves out of business they just may have found it..Let's see..we'll restrict who we sell to,cause..guilt. Victims fund...Just as soon as they start one, "victims" will start showing up with their hands out..and once the pay outs start, the lines of "victims" will continue to get longer, they'll never stop demanding payment until HK runs out of money..(let's not forget, Germany now has a couple million "victims" who recently showed up from Syria, and I'm sure they'll be there to collect) The level of stupidity shown here by HK is just astounding. Mark my words, this new policy will result in HK eventually going out of business, as political correctness is apparently more important than running a company with world wide sales at a profit..

    Yeah, good points. They are making their own 'slippery slope' and per the points you make, don't know how they can ever get any traction to survive as a arms manufacturer. Unless their goal is to now make toasters or something.

    HK has always been a little "cunty" about who they sell "weapons of war" too. Prior to the 1986 ban, they had already restricted dealer samples to only SOTs with a demo letter. Of course Colt pulled the same shit more or less, you could order a M16A2 without a letter, but it if transferred to a private individual that would be the last Colt you'd ever get. Colt also voluntarily neutered their rifles a year before the Clinton ban required them to do so.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    Chuck, we miss ya man.

    I have stuck up for HK quite a bit over the years. But if they are going to lump Israel in this group then I am totally done with them. Maybe I’m overreacting but this is annoying the piss out of me.
    Let those who are fond of blaming and finding fault, while they sit safely at home, ask, ‘Why did you not do thus and so?’I wish they were on this voyage; I well believe that another voyage of a different kind awaits them.”

    So they are extending their US firearms policy to the Middle East.

    Neat!
